Siberia v2 vs Sennheiser U 320 ( For Gaming )

[VenX]

Hello guys, i'm going to buy a headset for FPS gaming such as Counter Strike / Battlefield / DayZ. Which headset is better for gaming? In my opinion it's Sennheiser because they're famous about their sound quality and SteelSeries maybe more for comfort and design, also i checked some reviews and people says that the Sennheiser U320 is 7.1 Surround, but in the website there is the picture inside the headphone there is only 1 speaker in right and left, so it can't be surround or it can ?

The 7.1 will be virtual/simulated if it is indeed 7.1 capable. From Amazon's page for them:
"Did you know?

The U 320′s stereo speakers are mounted on a Sennheiser-patented CircleFlex™ system, which allows the headset to automatically adjust to the shape of your head. The microphone mutes automatically when the boom arm is raised."

I own a pair of the Siberia V2's, Actually I've owned 3(I've bought new ones and given the old sets to friends/relatives). And I've loved every pair but the first but only because I didn't notice they were specifically for iPhones/iPods etc. and the 3.5mm jack had to be played with(not fully inserted) to get full sound.

I also owned 2 pairs of Sennheiser headphones one was the PC 150 headset the other was just headphones. My only complaint about either pair was the cord was super thin and easily damaged.
